So we finally made it to the zoo before Todd has to go back to work. The weather hasn't been the best this weekend. We wanted to go to "The Big Zoo", but thanks to a minor back injury I didn't think I could make it. I hurt my back about a week and a half ago, but it has only been hurting on and off...until yesterday. Then this morning I could barely get little man out of the crib (FYI, there will be NO more pilates for me!). So after a stop at the Chiropractor's office this morning, we went to the local zoo and park. Which is just as exciting if you ask me...there are geese to feed, a small petting zoo, monkeys, otters, lynx, a water area, and it's all FREE, oh and a train that cost the whole family $2.50!! You can take a picnic lunch, do everything AND be home just in time for naps!! The only complaint from Alyssa was she didn't get to see any seals (she saw some on TV the other day and has been talking about them since). But as you can see by the pictures, she had fun anyways.

Feeding the ducks / geese.

Posing with the ladybug.

She thought this chicken was "So Cute!"

Hugging (yes actually hugging) a billy goat. She kept telling Todd "This my baby, got to take my baby home."

Taking a rest.

I opted against taking Aiden into the petting area. I didn't feel the need to scrape random animal poop off each stroller wheel. Instead the miniature pony came over to see him...Aiden liked him too.

Well, maybe he didn't like him that much! Don't know if you can tell, but he is screaming his head off now. Actually we took this as a sign that it was time to leave. We were all hot, tired and ready!
Have a great Monday!!

I sometimes forget that the zoo is there and that it's free!! Looks like fun! We went a few weeks ago but didn't go to the petting zoo much to Ava's disappointment!
